National security risk from the cameras would be a good point, except for them then saying:
The "huge direct support" he claims Chinese automakers receive from their government would be a good point, except for how Tesla infamously got $15-16bn of their $45-ish bn lifetime net income from the government both directly from subsidies and indirectly from other businesses via regulatory credits.Jobs would be a great point, but I find it hard to believe they actually care about jobs per se and would be very eager to replace all the workers with robotics (presumably mostly of the fixed arm variety rather than anything of the androids in the news for the last few years, despite the sales pitches the latter get). Factories are useful, though. | ||
